Everyone does so good here. And since I don't know any other forum except college confidential (which I'm too intimidated by
) I need to "express my thoughts" here.
I'm in highschool and I'm really scared about my lack of extra curriculars. I'm a junior and I've always taken an optional class that is held afterschool. Because of this, I have no clubs or sports to put in my application! The only thing I have is volunteer experience. (I have been altarserving since 4th grade and I have done volunteering at my local hospital and racked about 400 hours there)
I tried to go to my guidance counselor and he said it's too early to be thinking about college. I absolutely do not agree because I have to choose classes (specifically college-credit classes) for senior year.Then again he also tried to refer me to psychiatric help after I told him I bite my lip a lot whenever I have stress from school.
